I have been searching for over 5 years to find and obtain the cd
released in Japan by the artist "Brushy One String".  I have found it
listed on several import cd sites,out of print cd sites, even on
Amazon, but no one can seem to gt me a copy.  I have ordered it from
anyone that lists it with no luck I know for a fact that the cd exists
and was released on the Quattro label in Japan in 1996 or 1997.  Can
you help me to actually obtain a copy?

Dear charlieandjan,

Being a record collector myself, though with focus on a totally
different music style, I started searching the shops and sources I use
for obtaining hard-to-get rarities. At the end, I found only one
online dealer offering Brushy One String's album. However, this
special shop is, according to my personal experiences, highly
reliable; the vast majority of what they list in their online catalog
is in stock and instantly available. It is a Dutch music mail-order,
specialized in rare CDs and records, shipping anywhere and accepting
all kinds of payment. Please have a look at their catalog entry for
Brushy One String records:

The upper one seems to be the CD you have in mind. It is, however, not
cheap; but since it is clearly very rare, the price might well be
reasonable.

To contact Rockhouse Music and place an order, please use the
following contact information or their website:

I hope this will help you getting the CD you desire!

Dear charlieandjan,

Since you have already rated my work as unsatisfying I must say in
sincerity that it would have been very nice of you had you asked me
for clarification before adding a final rating. But nevertheless I
will keep on working on this question and I also hope other
Researchers might find answers.

Best regards,
Scriptor

Good and obvious answer, but already tried them with no luck.  This is
possible but will take someone who has contact or a connection with
japan

Scriptor is one of the very finest Researchers we have, and his effort
was a sincere one. Obviously he had no way of knowing what sites you
had already tried, since your question mentioned only Amazon.

If you use our service in the future, you may wish to consider asking
your Researcher for further help by sending a clarification request
before assigning a rating.

I thought I was following google directions by rating the answer I got
and then asking for more information and clarification.  It sounded
like I would be charged for asking another question when the first
hadn't been answered.  All  want is to find the cd.  Can anyone help
me to really locate it?
